Octopuses are symbolic for many cultures. For instance, they can represent flexibility, creativity, and intelligence. In Indigenous cultures, people believed the Octopus could control the weather or heal the sick. Legends in Hawaii claim the animal is connected with ancient gods. In addition, Octopuses hold spiritual meaning, and serve as a symbol for good luck.
What is Larimar?
Larimar is a very rare gemstone. That is to say, only a small mountainous area in the Dominican Republic is where the gem can be found, and it is created by volcanic activity. Norman Rilling and Miguel Méndez discovered the gemstone in 1974, and Méndez created the name larimar, by combining his daughter's name, Larissa, and the Spanish word for sea, Mar. Larimar is a stunning Caribbean Sea blue color, which is perfect for our sea creature inspired jewelry. With our Larimar Octopus Earrings, you can appreciate this beautiful gemstone and its history.
